Hey, Shaline, this is Andrea. I've been listening to you for a couple of years now,

but I just want to say thank you for the positive presence you are and how you're using your platform

and your influence. Just speak faith in a time of tremendous fear with this coronavirus epidemic.

So thank you. Thank you for using your influence for good. And once again, you are the bomb. Bye.

Welcome to the Shaline show. Shaline is a New York Times best-selling author, celebrity fitness trainer,

and obsessed with helping you live your dream life.

Hey, thanks so much for tuning in today to the Shaline show while you are on,

perhaps depending on when you're listening to this. If it's in real time,

if you listen to episodes as they are released because you're a subscriber,

I love you, lifers. Then you're listening to this, perhaps on house arrest or under forced

quarantine, social distancing, whatever you want to call it. We're dealing with the coronavirus.

And because of that, I just want to be honest with you and tell you,

there's so many different directions I wanted to take this podcast in today.

And I have spent the majority of my day with, to be honest, a bit of a headache, a stress headache.

And what I'm stressed about is worrying about everyone worrying, which doesn't do anyone any good.

It really doesn't. Worrying does no good whatsoever. We do five podcasts a week. A lot of changes

happen today. We're in Orange County, California, where everyone was basically mandated to

quarantine inside their homes, only essential businesses like food and medical services.

I think just a few other things are still available and open. And that just meant a lot of changes

for us. There's so many decisions that impact our business, so many decisions for us to make.

And amidst all that, I'm thinking about our business and our employees, but I have to think in a

grander scheme. Like I have to think about and worry about you. It's not that I have to. I want to.
